Vegan Chocolate Chip Cookies That Actually Taste Good

While I may have stopped eating meat in August, I have refrained from making the leap into full-fledged vegandom because—and I’ve said this on more than one occasion—vegan baked goods are terrible. Forgoing the animal products is easy in everyday cooking, but damn near impossible when eggs and butter are called for in almost every recipe I’ve attempted. Almond milk and quinoa paste make pitiful substitutions.

However, and I am downright shocked, this particular recipe bucks the trend of pseudo food that my vegan friends insist “tastes just like the real thing!” Unless you told someone these are vegan, I’d be surprised if they could tell. Also, please keep in mind, just because they’re vegan, doesn’t mean they’re healthy—probably why they taste so good.
